I had some time to work on my Christmas Journal again as I feverishly try to get caught up. I am enjoying the time I spend on it. The only negative is that I much rather work on the journal than on other chores that are more pressing. It's that procrastinator thing going on again. It is so difficult to change old habits. Day #8's prompt was to journal about the Signs of Christmas and for me the first sign is when Starbucks brings out their Holiday drink line...Peppermint Mocha, Eggnog and Gingerbread Lattes, etc. Yummy! Holiday Traditions was Day #9, so I wrote about a Scandinavian tradition that we always serve for our first course at Christmas Eve dinner. Finally, on Day #10 we were to wrap our page as if it was a gift. I just so happened to be wrapping gifts to send to relatives in Dallas that day, so I chose to use the same wrapping paper on my page. This was the simplest page to create so far!

ReplyDeleteAnd do you not love the holiday variety of Starbucks cup sleeves? I've taken to collecting them. LOL I think I have five different ones now, all destined to go on a scrapbook page at some point. I actually dug to the bottom of a stack the other day to get one I didn't have yet...the girl behind the counter gave me an odd look, so I explained WHY I had to have that one...and she pretty much was like, "WhatEVER..." :}
